378 GlossaryThe Simple Network Time Protocol (SNTP) is used to synchronize computer clocks on a TCP/IP network. You canconfigure the SNTP settings using Web Based Management.SSIDEach wireless network has its own unique network name and it is technically referred to as a Service Set Identifier(SSID). The SSID is a 32-byte or less value and is assigned to the access point. The wireless network devices youwant to associate to the wireless network should match the access point. The access point and wireless networkdevices regularly send wireless packets (referred to as beacons), which contain the SSID information. When yourwireless network device receives a beacon, you can identify the wireless network that is close enough for the radiowaves to reach your device.Standard resolution203 × 98 dpi (black and white). 203 × 196 dpi (color). It is used for regular sized text and the quickest transmission.Station IDThe stored information that appears on the top of faxed pages. It includes the sender’s name and fax number.Status MonitorThe Status Monitor utility is a configurable utility for Macintosh users to monitor the status of one or more devices,allowing you to get immediate notification when there is a problem, for example, when the machine runs out ofpaper or jams.Subnet MaskA subnet mask allows you to identify which part of an IP address is used as the network address and which part isused as the host address.In the following example, the last segment of the IP address is known as the host address and the first threesegments are the network address.Example: Computer 1 can talk to Computer 2• Computer 1IP Address: 192.168.1.2Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0• Computer 2IP Address: 192.168.1.3Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0NOTE: 0 denotes that there is no limit to communication at this part of the addressSuper Fine resolution (B&W only)203 × 392 dpi. Best for very small print and line art.TTAD (Telephone Answering Device)You can connect an external device or answering machine to the EXT. jack of your machine.TCP/IPTransmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) is the most popular set of protocols used forcommunication, such as Internet and email. This protocol can be used in almost all operating systems, includingWindows®, Windows Server ®, OS X and Linux®.
